After three years of trying to grow poppies, I finally got my first bloom last week! 💃🍾🎉 I was sowing at the wrong time….and then I found your poppy growing videos last year. Thanks for such useful and practical info, Brie. I don’t holiday shop on Black Friday so planting poppies will be my new holiday tradition 😊
I live in northwest Washington by the Canadian border. I bought a pound of seeds and put them in a bucket of water, then poured the bucket out into my garden beds in the middle of winter. Yielded stalks almost 5ft tall with magnificent flowers
I can vouch for the poppies not liking hot weather! They are also very prone to summer fungi and mites. They don't like excess water, but wilt in the heat if they don't get it. Next year, as I am in WI, I will start them indoors, and plant earlier in the year to avoid the extreme heat. They are so beautiful, and worth perfecting their successful growth!
They really don’t transplant well. When I lived in Michigan we would toss the seed in the snow in April and they would germinate in place after the snow melted. That may be a more successful approach vs starting indoors and transplanting.
@@BrieThePlantLady Thank you! I will try that for sure. Maybe, as an experiment, I will try a few transplants as well. Looking forward to learning more from your videos! 🙂
I share your full heart whenever someone admires and wants to stroll through your garden. I agree...no better compliment! I've put a reminder on my Nov 25 calendar for some direct sowing of poppies :) Thanks for sharing all your experience with us!
I took your advice last year and fall seeded a mix of larkspur, poppies, bachelor buttons, along with dill, cilantro, radish, and parsley. No luck with poppies but everything else is blooming this spring! Thanks for the tip!
Fascinating! This is the first year I’ve grown California poppies, and I’m hooked! I hope to be able to attend one of your presentations so that I can purchase some of your seeds. The cottage garden borders look nothing short of amazing! Blessings... daisy
Gorgeous…just love the loose, airy feel of your borders and gardens! There’s something about flowers and stalks that flow gently with soft a breeze. Your neighbours are sooo fortunate!
Such a great, helpful video. I am growing poppy’s in zone 3b for the first time. I did a spring direct sow and some are just germinating. I will most definitely follow to see how to harvest my own seeds. Thank you and happy gardening.
Thank you for this video! I just germinated and planted poppy from seed! I just seen my first poppy in the garden! And larkspurs! It a wonderful felling! Emotional🙂💐💚👍
Dummy me, i grew poppies from seed this season and had beautiful lilac PomPoms from rare seeds/baker creek (had great germination) but i cut off the seed making pods thinking they may rebloom lol! Oh well, now I know for next season to keep my seeds.
This is my second year growing poppies in zone 8b (western oregon) and I have so appreciated your videos. The first year your videos were so helpful as I had never grown many flowers from seeds before, thank you! I had a question for this year that I noticed. I pretty much did the same thing as last year, trying your bowling method:) when scattering seeds, but there is a small patch I noticed that the poppy plants are stunted and quite small this year. They are all in the same area, had the same amount of compost I put in before scattering the seeds. I thought maybe it was because I didn't weed that area too well after the seeds were coming up (when it was cold and frosty here, we had a long winter), and the extra weeds stunted their growth? Just seeing if you had any other ideas, because to the left of the small patch, things are growing quite tall and starting to bloom (and there were weeds there too). Last year I tried the whole thinning too, and this year I didn't do that, but most of the area has no issue with the fact that I didn't thin the seedlings. Thank you for any trouble shooting assistance for next year! I always tell my husband I follow your videos (he is from North Carolina-tar heel grad:) and he gets a kick out of me getting my assistance from a North Carolinian expert horticulturist!
Im glad u said that about germination rate...once again i had 2 crop failures.. one was also.a.seed that was NOT zinnia.seed!!!! Last three years larkspur..1/2 pound total failures...this year a third supplier..about 1/4 germinated Im saving seed this year..alrrady.have enough batchlor buttons but saving what EVER i can. Also cosmos failuremmnever using four seed companies again!!!
My poppies are still really small but finally starting to get bigger... i hope they make it! Hot days coming soon, I'm worried they'll dry out in their pots if they don't get big enough soon. I'm growing some sort of Hungarian, Danish Flag, and some from the Asian food store from Turkey. The asian food store seeds are growing like mad under my light indoors, rapidly outpacing the couple of hungarian ones I have under the light. I've been noticing that my little tiny poppies are happier with less than blazing full light hitting them all day. Better germ rates in the shady spots too I think
I love all your videos! This is my first year trying to garden, I ordered poppy seeds off Etsy and they have germinated very well, but I haven’t gotten any to grow a second set of leaves. I think I need to find a new seed company for fall sowing. Your garden is beautiful! Total goals
Hi Brie! I absolutely love your gardens and truly appreciate all the knowledge you share. Thank you. I have done some limited poppy growing and enjoy them so much. One thing I'm unsure of and don't see a video about in your Poppy playlist is how to transition the poppy areas for summer. I find them to be special because they're so fleeting, too. And with that I'm not sure what to have ready to go in those spaces as they wain. I'll keep watching the playlist to see if i can find that info, but if you haven't covered it maybe that would be a helpful future topic. Thank you so much for all the knowledge and inspiration your share! 🙏💕🌱
Hi! The summer transition videos are in a different playlist, because there are no poppies. Here is what we did in the big border last June after the cottage seed was harvested. ruclips.net/video/JZp6qUn4n7A/видео.htmlsi=kbldehR5WVb9tpTp
Such a beautiful spring garden! How do you think the garden would look if it was left to self seed without additional sowing? I’ve learned so much from your videos!
Because I replant for summer the seed gets mixed in and won’t germinate. Remember poppies have to have light to germinate so the seed has to be on the surface which is why they self sow along undisturbed edges but rarely in the places you actually want them to grow. I cover this in detail in fall planting videos.
You might want to get rid of that sycamore. I have a huge one and they drop balls with fluff seed inside and huge leaves each year. A real mess to clean up. Just a thought. I love the tree but not the mess. Oh yes, are the carrots the kind you eat? Gorgeous gardens. Just love it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I got a few poppies from your guide last fall. Yay! The seed pods are looking similar to yours, so I look forward to your upcoming instructions on how to collect the seeds. Seeing the different bloom timings in this video (based solely on your sowing time) makes me wonder if we could lengthen the shower time with multiple sowings in the same area. What do you think?
Hi Brie. Your cottage-style gardens are looking fabulous- I'll be having something like that myself. Are those yellow-colored flowers, in your backyard, mustard plants, and if so, which variety? I think they look good with your poppies, etc. display.
Hi Brie I’m a first time poppy “sower” my plants are huge and plenty of buds … but why are my leaves and overall plants so much larger is it a different variety than yours? How many buds per plant is average… maybe show a quick anatomy of the poppy plant, it is very different than I expected. Everything else is shaded out or pushed over from these “cabbage” style leaves… so far very fun to grow and cannot wait for my first bloom….. all because of your channel… thanks from your neighbor in Angier
Sounds like you have more nitrogen in your soil. What did you fertilize eith? They will bloom soon. Number of blooms depends on how big the plant is and various greatly depending on exposure and soil.
I heard they like a good even nuetral soil and a lot of phosphorous and people have told me they like ash but I don't know if they like anything else like I know marijuana plants love a lot of extra amendments like soil bacteria, aminos, etc.
Great info. I plan to sow poppy on the Black Friday this year as you suggested, so excited! Do you have to thin the seedings in spring? I'm afraid I will over sow the seeds since they are so tiny.
@@BrieThePlantLady One more question: can your spring flowers last until the frost? If not, what do you plant in the bed after Poppy, or larkspur is done? Thank you. Your video is so educational and helpful.
I'm trying to find the Oriental poppy 'Sultana' here in the States, or to buy some seed. I saw it growing at Sissinghurst many years ago and it was a lovely raspberry/watermelon color. If anyone has a source, please reply here....
Eden brothers online their poppy seeds come up very very well my aunt gets them from Eden brothers and hers is beautiful but next year I'm ordering my seeds from the Eden brothers online because the online spot I've been ordering from they do not come up only few comes up.
I'm a new gardener and I have a lot of summer/warm season blooming perennials in my garden (new england asters, tall phlox, coneflower etc). If I plant a cool season meadow planting like you have here, will their mature size/bloom season during the spring impede sun exposure for the summer garden? I guess I'm confused whether I need a separate space for spring blooming plants.
Is it possible to buy some seeds from you or trade for other seeds? Oooops....nevermind lol I shouldn't comment until the end of the video lol Guess I'm out of luck since I can't travel.
No the seeds need to have contact with soil/ compost and had to be right in the surface. Please watch videos from the fall regarding exact planting instructions.
I live in 8b south Alabama. I plant my pre-chilled tulips in January in my sunniest western exposure and scatter poppy seed on top. What and when should I scatter or direct sow afterwards to get a cottage border without disturbing the bed?
@@BrieThePlantLady I tried zinnia, alyssum, marigold, and vinca last year and only the marigold didn't do. What about bachelor's buttons? Also how the heck do I keep weeds out of the open ground til the poppies take over? Should I mulch first then scatter seed?
I’m curious, I’m in South Carolina in the midlands, and have tried direct sown seeds, as well as potted poppies planted in the ground, with zero success so far. How did yours do? Did they come up? I’ve sown some this winter indoors, and they’re doing great, but I know in the fall, when I plant them and eagerly wait all winter…to spring, they’ll be gone! About ready to quit trying. I think it’s just too hot here
@MrsRCope First of all, let me say that I'm no expert as I've had limited success myself. Only direct sowing has worked for me. You cannot transplant. The red oriental poppy and the Shirley double are the only varieties that have come up for me. The Hungarian breadseed varieties with all the pretty names and interesting colors or ruffles don't seem to wanna live here. Also you cannot hope that part shade will shelter them from heat. They don't do well in shade period. Fullest sun only. Scatter seed on the coldest days of winter. I think larkspur and alyssum help to shelter the poppy roots from sun and support them when they are tall enough to flop. Good luck! Pray for them. I do that too. Lol
@@jcrane45585I agree. Shirley poppies may do better for me mee [8b deep east Texas]. Breadseed poppies will germinate but then just disappear. I've planted 50 billion poppy seeds of all kinds and had very little luck. Big pink Turkish poppies produce a few but just a few. I'm going to try more Shirley poppies and will sow them late November/December. I am also planning to sow some in pots and see what happens. Good luck!
@@BrieThePlantLady well I just have to come by & see you in person one of these days. It will be a worthy event for me coming from Atlanta. Thank you soooo much 😘

I'm just west of seattle!
Also never forget how useful they are as medicine if things go sideways
They all look so healthy very nice work! I bet the fragrance is spectacular. 😁 And the bottles fantastic idea.
Thank you!
I can vouch for the poppies not liking hot weather! They are also very prone to summer fungi and mites. They don't like excess water, but wilt in the heat if they don't get it. Next year, as I am in WI, I will start them indoors, and plant earlier in the year to avoid the extreme heat. They are so beautiful, and worth perfecting their successful growth!
They really don’t transplant well. When I lived in Michigan we would toss the seed in the snow in April and they would germinate in place after the snow melted. That may be a more successful approach vs starting indoors and transplanting.

So Beautiful when the wind blows!
Oh! That's so beautiful. Well worth the effort.
I’m less bothered by size, just happy they germinate and bloom.
Your garden is so beautiful! 👍👍
Oh my goodness what a beautiful garden. I would love to have a flower garden. Like that . I am in zone 6/ 7 some say one one say another. Northwest.
Yes the northwest is a lot like the southeast as far as gardening goes.
Stunning!! I have the perfect spot. I cant wait to see what you do with it for the rest of the season.
Your directions are working for me in east tx for all 3 types , I also am adding larkspur but I'm stratifing in the freezer for 2 weeks.
I’m so glad it’s working! Refrigerator is better stratification temp for larkspur.
Thank you for this video! I just germinated and planted poppy from seed! I just seen my first poppy in the garden! And larkspurs! It a wonderful felling! Emotional🙂💐💚👍
Oh that’s wonderful!!!
I'm no expert but I believe the increase in the amount of light after the Winter solstice also triggers the growth of the plant.

How do you keep the birds from eating your seeds? Our California birds LOVE poppy seed.
It’s a competition to beat them to the seed

Yes wait until temps start to drop into the low 40’s at night. The soil needs to be cooler.
HI Brie - Does deadheading poppies produce more blooms or do they only bloom once?
No- dead heading does not Increase blooms. Do not dead head you will just be wasting seed
Well , southeast Texas here and our cold months are January and February. So , is it to late to plant now ?
Probably too late in your area. You could try and see.
